Hello, I want to know about corrected cards for noncitizen adults.
Have you change your name or became a U.S. citizen?
I did become a U.S. citizen, yes.
then you should inform Social Security so your records can be updated and you can get issued a new card.
================
I don't have permission to work.
As a lawfully admitted noncitizen, you still have many benefits without having a social security number. You can do business with a bank, obatin private health insurance, apply for educational test, etc.
tell me abbout M-1 students.
for M-1 students, they need to show Social Security their I-20 Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Student Status to show their immigration status.
Let me ask you again about what I can do without a social security number. If I need to get a driver's license, can I actually get a social security number?
no, if that's your only purpose for asking a social security number, then no, you can't.
In case I change my name, do I have to inform my employers?
You should, yes. If you don't it could prevent your wages from being posted correctly to your Social Security record and that would lower the amount of your future social security benefits. It could also cause delays when you file your taxes.
